ghd Brand Ambassador Justine Marjan, created a super sleek style for actress Olivia Culpo at this year's Oscars.
'We were inspired by the hairstyles seen on the Marchesa Fashion Show runway, particularly a hairstyle that featured a deep side part and separation around the face. We wanted to balance the feminine glam of the dress with edgy and fashion forward hair.'
Get the Look
- Prep damp hair with an extra hold gel at the roots and shine serum at the ends.
- Create a deep side part then use the ghd air hairdryer and a fine tooth comb to dry the hair forward on the face.
- Blow dry the rest of the hair straight using a smoothing brush.
- Spray a heat protect spray and run the ghd platinum styler through the hair from root to end.
- Separate the back section of the hair from the front and gather the back section into a low pony with a smoothing brush that has been sprayed with hairspray, then secure with an elastic.
- Add the front sections to the back pony then secure with another elastic.
- Add a ponytail hair extension piece then flat iron the length of the pony with the ghd platinum styler.
- Run the shine serum through the length of the pony.
- Wrap base of the pony with a velvet ribbon, then secure with a bobby pin and tuck ends in.
- Spray a toothbrush with hairspray and lightly brush the top to smooth any flyaways.
